These tasks were written for a friend.  I assume no respobility for
any damage to your device if anyone other than he attempts 
these tasks


After I uploaded these files, I noticed because of word wrap
some things might be unclear

all adb and fastboot commands should be all on one line
not two as some pages show

I will try to figure out how to fix those pages as I find them

It will probably cause some confusion on your part so clarify with me
if need be

These tasks may seem overwhelming at first glance.  Just relax.
Do one task at a time one step at a time.  Take frequent breaks.
You can stop at any point and come back to it later.

 
EDIT -- I think I fixed them, if not please advise

        Note the reference to power button menu does not apply to a stock HDX
        you can access bootloader on a stock HDX by holding the power & 
        volume - buttons together releasing only the power button after 
        a few seconds (only with an unlocked bootloader) or try

             adb reboot bootloader
     

        These tasks were written for the HDX 7" (thor).  While they can also
        be used for the HDX 8.9" 3rd generation, they are NOT to be used for
        the HDX 8.9" 4th generation (saturn).

Most of the Word files have been updated, some additional files have been added and the "EVERYTHING.ZIP" is every file here in one downloadable zip file.  

My original intent was to include all the images in the documents themselves but it was time consuming and just didn't bother.  If requested, I will do so, as time permits.

April 5, 2019 - Added the file StepsToEnablefastbootCommands.doc which includes the images 

April 7, 2019 - Added note to Task 4 regarding problem with unlock files and some of the newer fastboot.exe files  

April 27, 2019 - Added note to Task 5 to hopefully eliminate any potential confusion on how to get into Recovery mode
